Bm Em C D G

[Verse]
    G
Many more miles were behind him than he had left to go
       C
Closing in upon that last one that we all must walk alone
        G                              D
It's the one across the end of the line
          G
So we held on and we told stories of the good and bad in all
      C
Of the power and the glory and the lonely days that crawled
             G                      D                    G Am Bm
And we prayed heaven holds true love  and a satisfied mind

[Chorus]
          C                                   D
He said, I ain't afraid of dying 'cause I know  there's something worse
        G                Am      Bm          C                    D
When you have to see your reason for living  go first and you get left behind
          G                               C
Some can't think of nothing better than to live this life forever
       G              Bm             C
I never wanted no more  than was mine
      Bm                Em           C      D              G D
And to lay down someday  and go home  with a satisfied mind

[Verse]
              G
He said, don't look into the darkness if you want to see true black
        C
Look in- to a morning's brightness when love ain't coming back
            G                                    D
And you will find there is a darkness that blinds
               G
And don't think wealth is ever having all you want all to yourself
     C
It is found when you are giving what you have to someone else
        G                                   D                   G Am Bm
The only difference in the rich and the poor  is a satisfied mind

[Chorus]
          C                                   D
He said, I ain't afraid of dying 'cause I know  there's something worse
        G                Am      Bm          C                    D
When you have to see your reason for living  go first and you get left behind
          G                               C
Some can't think of nothing better than to live this life forever
       G              Bm             C
I never wanted no more  than was mine
      Bm                Em           C      D              G C
And to lay down someday  and go home  with a satisfied mind

One light began to fade as one grew brighter
              C                                   D
And he said, I ain't afraid of dying 'cause I know  there's something worse

Let me lay down someday  and go home,   satisfied mind
